All,

What methods are commonly used to dissipate high RF power in vacuum
chambers, apart from conduction cooled plates?

Any response is welcomed.

Thanks.

Well apart from forced air or water cooling for anodes, the heat from
cathodes isn't enough to
have to worry about since its heat radiates to the anode where it is
removed by anode cooling.
The tungsten cathodes of large RF tubes need to run hot so they don't
try to cool them.
